Dunluce Castle

Built on a Limestone Cliff against a dark basalt outcrop and joined to the mainland by an arched walkway.

Dunluce Castle dates to the 14th Century and has been one of the properties owned by the De Burgo Norman Family. It was taken from them by the Mac Donnells family in the 1500s. From the ruin of the Castle one can see the Fantastic outline of the Inishowen Peninsula close to Donegal.

Bushmills Distillery

The distillery is a popular tourist attraction, with around 120,000 visitors per year. A distillery by this name was first recorded in 1743, although at the time it was “in the hands of smugglers”

The area has a long tradition with distillation. As far back as 1276, an early settler called Sir Robert Savage of Ards, before defeating the Irish in battle, fortified his troops with “a mighty drop of acqua vitae”. In 1608, a licence was granted to Sir Thomas Phillips by King James I to distil whiskey and The Bushmills Old Distillery Company itself was finally established in 1784.

Mountsandel Wood

Mountsandel Wood is the earliest known settlement of man in Ireland dating to between 7600 and 7900BC.

Flint tools were found here, indicating that Stone Age hunters camped here to fish salmon in the natural weir. The earthen fort is thought to date back to Norman times.

There are good views over Somerset Wood and of the River Bann.
